Controller: DX100
Robot: MS80
I was asked to do some testing with the servo float option. We have a lab robot with it turned on, but it doesn't seem to be setup properly. Before testing I read the manual, registered tool weight, and verified the ARM Control settings. It allows the robot to float, but without control of any particular direction. I tried it with base, robot, tool, and user frame coordinates; nothing made a difference. As soon as I enable any direction of movement, I can move it anywhere. The tool orientation on/off works, but no control of direction.
I searched for detailed setup information, but seemed to only get horror stories. I am being asked to investigate this for robots we have on order. It will be setup by Yaskawa for those robots, if we decide to use it. I just want to do any initial testing I can using our lab robot. Any help/experience will be appreciated. Thanks.
